  • Hi! My name is Abhinav and I am an Indian living in the UK. I first met Romani people in Ukraine during a documentary production trip in 2018. When I got to know that this people group actually originated from India I started to do research about them. When they first saw me they thought I was a Roma too but soon realised that I had come from India. Now whenever I travel to Eastern Europe I try and spend time with Roma Gypsy.
    Last spring I got the opportunity to travel to Romania and I wondered if I could find Roma people there. This video is about my experience in a Gypsy village. Please check it out to find more about them.

      They are part of us lost their way when Ghaznavi took them as part of his loot and later freed them.

The British colonized and enslaved india for 400 years and he walks around and blames turkish people , what a fucking idiotic rumor . Roma are in Europe since more than 1000 years , Turkey only exists since 1923 and the "Ottoman" Empire was founded in 1299 , and India was not Part of "Ottoman" Empire , so how does that make sense to anybody with a honest heart ?

They were average normal Indians who were forced to migrate either due to survival or economic situations. They just choose the wrong place to go. That too they were forced by the Turks and Mongols as slaves of war, a concept unknown to the refined and developed Ancient India.

      I think we should provide them the good opportunity to live where they are now, Coming to India now will be not good for them. There culture, language, food, climate conditions all are different now. It will be difficult for them to adjust in India. They will still feel outsiders here.

Just couple thousand of people on internet saying we accept them doesn't mean that millions of Indians going to accept them because in the end they are going to be migrants here too and India already had a migrants problem. 99% of them will we either Muslim or Christian(I may be wrong in stats, so correct me if), do you think Indians going to accept them when we were not even accepting Muslim migrants from neighbouring countries like Rohingyas. Just think about it man, things are not that easy. They can come to India anytime they can, Indians are going to greet them happily but staying permanently is a different thing.

Roma are in Europe since more than 1000 years , Turkey only exists since 1923 and the "Ottoman" Empire was founded in 1299 , and India was not Part of "Ottoman" Empire , so how does that make sense to anybody with a honest heart ?

    I was very sad to see the part where the two guys didn't want to be known as Roma. I have Romani heritage from my father's side, Irish from my mother's side of my family. I spent my first 18 years from birth in horse drawn wagon or vardo travelling. Speaking some amount of a European Roma dialect. I love that about myself. My father is much darker skinned than myself if which I've always been jealous as I got my mums whiter than white tone, lol. I was raised experiencing great prejudice against myself also, but didn't let it take away who I am. I also learned to accept others more and they will accept for who you are also.

    Few suggestions :
    1. You can provide them with some online sources to get to know more about India, its culture, its current situation, and a lot more.
    2. You can visit the Indian embassy in the country and interview the staff there about Roma people. If they happen to not know much about Roma people, you can provide them with some resources to create awareness about these long-lost Indians. It may even attract the attention of the current Indian government.

    Thank you Abhinav my father is Roma/Spanish and their family is very much into the Flamenco scene. You should check out the similarities in vocals Andalusian flamenco has to Indian music. Just something fun for you to check out. I was born and raised in US by my mother's family so unfortunately some of the treatment of women is still lacking. However at least my brother and I have broken the cycle. I'm 4.1% Pakistani/northern Indian according to 23 & me and 11.9 Western Asian/North African so your info about Romani, Turk slaves was very interesting and I hope someday India will allow us back to have a normal life and culture.

      When I come back home I really want to help and improve as much as possible their lives , specially when I see how hard they work.
      We built a little school and put a Roma teacher for them to learn basic education. We build a little church so they can worship as they enjoy. But in the end I understand that, they will only be happy as they are and I think would be bad if we try to force them to live differently.

So for them for many gypsy is somebody who begs steals not working living in conditions like in the 1 at century with out washrooms running water bathrooms don’t have nothing .. so yeah a gypsy only can be dirty primitive criminals .. and our normal human beings they say well he’s not gypsy 😂😢 .. so it’s an unfortunate situation.. it is what it is ..

    Can’t thank you enough for showing solidarity and for offering us visibility. It’s rare that someone talks about us without stereotyping or saying racist things.
    There are a lot of Roma who deny their identity and when i say a lot , i mean a LOT and it is heartbreaking. Our history about Chattel Slavery in what is now Romania is never acknowledged & it was the longest to ever be registered on planet earth. We’ve been denied our history, most Roma don’t even know the history of their own ancestors. All groups who have had a similar history to us have been dehumanized with the same stereotypes that have been used against us for centuries yet racism towards us is so painfully normalized that it’s shocking when someone actually sees us as more than just the sum up of all of those stereotypes.

Trust me we never ever did anything to Roma , we didn't enslave them neither were there concentration camps , there were many famous Roma "Ottomans " they worked for this country and they were not seen as different people , this guy said himself they treated everybody equally but not the roma ? do you really believe this nonsense ? everybody was the same , There were East Asian , South Asian , Caucasian , Anatolian , European , African , middle Eastern Pashas and Sultans and Vesir . Everybody had the Chance to become Someone , Turkishness is a modern and sometimes misleading Term , It was about being a Muslim not being a Race , look at turkey today there are so many different ethnic groups , the only thing that keeps us togheter is Nationality and Religion not a pseudo tribal Race which existed thousands of years ago , we have many Politicians of Roma Heritage or Mixed , for example Ibrahim Kalin .

    It is so sad that they are not getting the basic needs as like the other common citizen of the country.

And then the wrong English translation by Max Muller proved swami vivekananda says that it was a attack on hindus. To seperate them by introducing caste system.

      Everyone is suffering in Ukraine at the moment, regardless of their origin, but the situation was not better before the war. Because the previous Ukrainian government curtailed the rights of minorities, the victims of which were both Hungarian and Russian, but especially the Gypsy/Roma communities. Minority cultures and languages were banned, schools were closed, people were dismissed from their offices. One of the most extreme cases are stories of people being tied to trees and beaten to death. Roma or people of Roma origin were also doused with paint, stripped naked, tied to trees and left to freeze to death in the winter cold. I am writing this so that people in India know how some countries treat these people. It's something to be ashamed of. That's why I want people all over the world, including India, to learn about the real situation of Roma people, which doesn't seem romantic at all. And for those people who suffered serious and permanent physical or mental injuries or died during these atrocities, no amount of money can restore their health and life. I want people in India to know this too. Regardless of whether they wander in any of the deserts or live their daily lives in the cities.

    I know I have a lot of comments I apologize, as a Roma activist who daily speaks to other Romani (Roma is just on of several groups like Sinti, Kalo and so forth) I get very excited when I see people trying to learn and educate others about who we are and the history. Romania in particular knowing that Roma were enslaved for over 500 years and that the slavery went away last with the government and churches many Roma there are only 2nd or 3rd generation born outside slavery. Romania had segregation in school and Roma were all treated as "unteachable", the jobs they offer are the same as the ones they enslaved the ancestors to do and don't give firm opportunities at education and social advancement on an equal footing. That is why they don't integrate into the society where economics are concerned well. Other than that we say integration not assimilation and every country has tried to separate us from our culture, even the U.S. antigypsyism is a global systemic issue. You don't see us everywhere because we have learned not to tell people our race or we get treated poorly, always comes down to being a G*psy, a slur very literally invented for our people. I appreciate what you're doing and can't wait to see more. I can again put you in touch with educated Romani in places you travel who can take you to the mahalas who can help you better understand on your travels just let me know or you can look at rhe people on my Instagram @anyatheodora1 for the Roma NGOs and activism network. Also lots of information I post the global news on Romani as I find it you'll see why we still hide in many areas if you look.

    One way to revive their respect and value they deserve is to have Indian business communities establishing business in their places.... bridging the gaps .... empowering them more and more .. infrastructure, assets, money, political offices, entertainment industry etc... Roma people can also come, live and expand businesses in India ..... Let's unite !!!!

      Indian business communities, empowering local people!? An intriguing concept to say the least. They have been in Africa for generations now and own most almost everything. Give them a chance and all the Roma won't own even the horse shoes.

      @@aaraar4055 Didn't get you mate.... I am trying to convey a more mutually empowering strategy... Roma people have to come to India and establish big businesses as well.... who knows? may be cultural dishes.... dance practices classes, language institutes , exports etc...
      Because Indians have been doing that around the world and exercising soft power and cultural highlights... like Indian restaurants around the globe.... more and more recognition..... textiles and spices.... indian classical music institutes.... high political officers ..... scientific contribution to joint research... academia etc... We can try that for Roma people as well... may be a highlight of their lifestyles in textbook... or they Indian film industry !! There's no particular road map.....

    He mentioned Roma loves Horses. I’m sure they were Kshatriyas(Warrior caste) migrated out of Rajasthan after invasion.

      It is true Roma love horses but the Roma who are a higher class than these people consider horses something of the past I'm not mocking these people for I am Roma and they are still my people rich or poor as far as Roma being great Warriors from India it's just not true Roma are not the so-called gypsies of Rajasthan two different people being referred to as Gypsy does not make nobody Roma Roma literally means our people example America was at War for the past 20 years or more you know how many Roma's fought for America and there's over a million Roma in America not one because Roma are more for themselves and their family they will not give up their family or lives to fight a war for any country they try to avoid it in other words draft Dodgers and or conscientious objectors
